Welcome to paradise!

Just 8km from Townsville in tropical North Queensland, you’ll find Magnetic Island - a very beautiful and special place - and a 'must do' on your bucket list trips.

The Island has a unique blend of National Park, 23 beaches and bays, and a small residential population of over 2,000, all within World Heritage Marine Park.

You can find out where to stay, what to do and how to get to our tropical island paradise in the Magnetic Island Guide.

Take a cruise, learn to dive, snorkel, fish or swim in the stunning turquoise waters around the Island, or try some of our great hiking tracks past pristine beaches and into bush land. Play a round of golf, or bowls, or take a tour, then head out and enjoy dining al fresco.

Magnetic Island has an abundance of wildlife, so why not hire a car or scooter and discover hidden gems in secret bays.

What ever you decide to do, come and relax and enjoy 'Island Time'.

We'd love to see you. :)
